GOD BLESS THE OLD-FASHIOHED GIRLS.

Bishop Gosgrove, of Davenport,
Iowa, delivered a notable sermon
in that city last Sunday on the
immoral tendencies of the time
through the breaking down of
safeguards which once protected
girls and young women. AS a
model for the rising generation,
the "old.fashioned girl" of thirty
years ago, was alluded to in the
following words "She was little
girl until she was fifteen years old,
and she helped her mother in her
household duties. She had her
hours of play and enjoyed herself
to the fullest extent. She never
said to her mother : Il can't
don't want to- for obedience to her
was a cherished virtue. She arose
in the morning when called, as we
do not suppose she had her hair
done up in paper and crimping
pins, or banged over her forehead.
She didn't grow into young lady
and talk about her bean before she
was in her teens, and she did not
read dime novels, nor was she
fancying a hero in every plow-bOy
she met. The Old.fashioned girl
was modest in her demeanOr, and
sbe never talked slang or used
bywOrds. She did not laugh at old
people nor make fun of cripples.-
She had respect for her elders, and
was not above listening to words
of counsel from those older than
herself. She did not know as much
as her mother. She did not 60 to
parties by the time that she was
ten years old, and stay till after
midnight dancing with any chance
young man who happened to be
present. She went to bed IN sea.
son, said her prayers, slept the
sleep of innocence, and rose up in
the morning happy and capable of
giving happiness. And now il
there be an old-fashioned girl in
the world to day may Heaven bless
and keep her and raise up others
like her."

all quarters of the globe are being con
stantly extended and improved, and new
features are added without regard TO ex-
pense as the occasion demands.

occupied an enviable position as model
family newspaper, containing not only the
news of the world and a variety of literary
matter and miscellaneous reading for the
family circle, but special features OF recog-
nized value, including an agricultural de-
partment, which supplies every week
mass of well-digested information for
the farmer.
